    Assessment

    PHASE 1

    Assessment

    Evaluate your compliance.

  • Phase 1 - ASSESSMENT

    Does your current system meet regulatory and retailer standards?

    We evaluate your operations to identify critical gaps in FDA and GFSI compliance. You receive a precise analysis of what is required to reach audit-readiness and unlock new retail opportunities.
    RESULT: A clear implementation roadmap to achieve full regulatory compliance.

  • Phase 1

    Assessment

    PHASE 2

    Build

    Deploy a functional eQMS.

  • Phase 2 - Build

    Is your safety system capable of scaling with your growth?

    We turn your roadmap into a functional management system. Our team defines your processes, sets up documentation, and installs a cloud-based eQMS built for your specific workflow. We train your staff to ensure your food safety protocols work in the real world, not just on paper, meeting all FDA and GFSI requirements.
    RESULT: A fully operational eQMS that supports audits, compliance, and business scale.

  • Phase 1

    Assessment

    Is your system ready for a GFSI audit?

    This is the final check before your audit. We conduct a rigorous mock inspection under live conditions to find and fix any remaining gaps. Our experts ensure your procedures meet every FDA and GFSI standard, so you stay in complete control during the real certification process.

    RESULT: An audit-ready operation prepared to pass GFSI certification successfully.

  • Phase 1

    Assessment

    PHASE 4

    Maintain

    Stay audit-ready always.

    We help you embed safety protocols into daily habits so compliance never slips. As your processes change, we update your system to maintain FDA and GFSI standards. We act as your long-term partner, supporting you through customer audits and continuous improvements to keep your business retail-ready at all times.
    RESULT: Long-term compliance and a stable system that secures sustainable growth.

About the Founder

Mrs. Stefanie Rath

​

Founder & Managing Director 
Principal Consultant

Hi, I’m Stefanie Rath — originally from Germany and now building CertReady Solutions in the United States.

 

I bring more than 20 years of hands-on experience in the food and food-contact packaging industries, with deep expertise in Food Safety, Hygiene Management, Quality Management, and managing certification processes from preparation through ongoing compliance.

 

I know what it means when systems have to work not only on paper, but in real daily operations. My strength is bringing structure, focus, and practical leadership to complex systems — turning scattered processes into clear workflows that are easier to use, maintain, and scale.

 

I founded CertReady Solutions to give growing U.S. food manufacturers a practical, implementation-focused partner — not just another consultant who delivers a report and walks away.

 

We build systems that support daily operations, audit and certification readiness, and scalable business growth.

Food Safety. Quality. Compliance. Confidence.

Let’s make you CertReady.

Book an introductory call or send a message, and take the first step toward a Food Safety System built for growth.
